Chapter Two is now ready for your reading pleasure.

Yes indeed. Prof. Stokes is a very talented writer, as are the two writers ( Mark and Char)who preceded her wonderful chapter.
For those of you who have been following the story, Chapters 3 (written by BuzzH)and 4 of the Christmas RR have been posted. My only regret about my writing of Chapter 4 is the poor pre-posting editing job of it i did. But oh well, you'll get the just of it.
